Honored to have all of you giving a shout out to our dad! He is an amazing person, awesome father, terrific grandpa and more… We are so blessed to have such a Rich Legacy!!!

One of my memorable moments on the river is when the boat broke down in the middle of the night… Dad continued to swim the canals to make it back to the house! All we heard was him yelling at gators and making big splashes as he went miles and miles… He was adventurous and a little crazy! What a wild ride!!

Going to miss my daily talks ... my trouble shooting partner ! All his wise butt jokes ... and the love he so graciously gave his grandkids!!

Love ,Tara "Bear"

So very sorry to hear of Wallace's recent passing. He was truly a remarkable fella indeed! We shared so many wonderful memories being "River Rats" back in the day with him and his girls. Wallace was all about sharing what he had with his family and many friends. He was so kind, sharing his home with our family on many occasions. We wish peace and comforting memories for his family during these times. Rest in Peace our dear friend....
